Gehyra variegata
—
Variegated Dtella
Also known as:
Tree Dtella, Western Tree Dtella
I found this chubby (gravid?) gecko concealed under a board, keeping a bunch of Bynoe's Geckos company.
Here is a complete list of the reptiles and frogs I saw on this trip to Western Australia.
Back in Western Australia, this more dramatically-marked individual was prowling around on its adopted home, an old sheep-wool bag at the Peron Homestead.
Ive written up an account of this three-week trip to Australia here.
